Data sampled on 1/4/2010

Appendix

Notes Regarding Tables I and II

Note 1: (Table I) Dollar figures shown are requested first year direct costs of competing applications for FY2009 Council rounds.

A total of twenty-nine applications from the four council rounds that make up FY 2009 (October 2008, Jan. 2009, May 2009 and August 2009) had no PCC codes.

For Table II, completed on 1/4/2010, only applications that had been assigned to a division, reviewed, and percentiled by that time were included. One grant application in the RPG line did not meet this criteria at the time Table II was prepared (it had not been assigned to a division).

Note 3: (Table I) Data include applications reviewed or to be reviewed by Council, applications considered not competitive, and applications requesting $50,000 or less.

Note 4: (Table I) The data may include competing revisions to existing awards. These revisions are counted as separate applications except in the Center Grants budget category.

Note 5: (Table II) The data include Research Project Grants that were percentiled in review. Therefore, the "number reviewed" in Table II is less than the corresponding number of applications in line 1 of Table I. In addition, applications in response to RFAs are not percentiled. In summary, the data in Table II include Research Project Grant applications to NIA for Council Rounds in FY2008 & 2009 as long as they are not in response to an RFA and have been percentiled.
